New York/Florida, Apr 26 : The Kashmir Discussion Forum USA will hold an international Zoom dialogue titled “Voices of J&K: Media, Society & Nationhood” on Sunday to foster informed global discussion on the evolving socio-political and media landscape of Jammu and Kashmir, the organisers said.
The event has been dedicated to the memory of the Pahalgam Martyrs and is expected to draw participation from analysts, journalists, and members of the Kashmiri diaspora across the world, they said.
The discussion will focus on the role of media in shaping public perception of Jammu and Kashmir, the responsibilities of civil society during sensitive times, and the broader challenges of upholding truth, democratic values, and national cohesion, the organisers added.
Senior journalist Ashwani Kumar, known for his extensive coverage of Jammu and Kashmir affairs, will deliver the keynote address as the Distinguished Guest Speaker.
The session will be chaired and moderated by Surinder Zutshi, Editor-in-Chief of Kashmir NRI Today. Zutshi said the forum aims to create “a responsible international conversation where facts, memory, and national concerns can be discussed with seriousness and dignity.”
Organisers said viewers from the United States, India, and several other countries will attend the programme virtually. The event is part of the forum’s ongoing initiative to connect global voices on issues related to Jammu and Kashmir. (KNS)
